Did you hear it call Carol?

Wedgebills sound rather different to Panpanpalla.

Hi All

I am looking for some ID help.
I was at Bowra last month and saw a bird a couple of times, first thinking that this was automatically Chirruping Wedgebill. However on consulting the guides, I started to have doubts. The bird didn't display the erect crest normally associated with the wedgebill but also didn't quite fit the other potential suspect - Crested Bellbird. We have seen Chiming Wedgebill before which had the erect crest. Is this possibly a female Crested Bellbird ?
